LOCATION & DESCRIPTION Conifers occupies a secluded yet most accessible location just over ½ mile east of the Market House in Ross town centre. The final approach to the property is along a short, single track gravelled lane, at the circular termination of which are just four properties, and such is their tucked away nature, that we suspect the majority of Ross-on-Wye residents would probably not even be aware of their existence! Originally a much smaller bungalow, Conifers has been extended twice in its history, the most recent extension having been carried out by the current owners, to most pleasing effect. This latter extension involved projecting the property rearwards, and there is now an outstanding 18 living room which is not only particularly light, but has a delightful outlook across the generously sized, lawned rear garden and studio. The kitchen opens directly from the rear of this living room, and beyond the kitchen island is a delightful breakfast room with French doors directly out onto the adjacent flagstone terrace. Positioned adjacent to the breakfast room is the superb 25 dining room and snug, complete with fireplace, whilst the two principal bedrooms, bath/shower room & w.c., utility room, shower room & w.c. and study are to the far side of the corridor. The hobbies/yoga/child s bedroom is positioned to the north eastern side of the property on the first floor, beneath two double glazed Velux roof lights. This is not a full sized bedroom, but is typically greeted by children with squeals of delight! Gardens extend all the way around the property, and there are many appealing mature shrubs and young trees, including a spectacular Magnolia. Outbuildings include garage, carport, tool shed, studio, greenhouse and log stores.
